Costa Polarized Glasses King Tide 6 #XL Black (Copper Silver Mirror 580G)
Costa polarizing glasses have been highly appreciated for many years, not only by professional guides. The brilliance and imaging performance of these patented lenses has found many fans worldwide in fresh and salt water and the large selection of frames and tints offers the right model for every fly fisherman!
The King Tide polarized glasses from Costa were developed to give anglers the ultimate advantage on the water. The glasses have a purely functional design, with a glare shield that prevents the sun from shining in from the side, but at the same time is well ventilated thanks to the cut-out. This makes it almost impossible for the lenses to mist up in changing temperatures or after physical exertion! In addition, the side shields of the glasses are removable, which also makes the goggles suitable for everyday use. Furthermore, the glasses have rubberized nose pads so that the glasses do not start to slip even on wet skin. The King Tide is an innovative pair of glasses, the result of Costa's 40 years of experience, which brings out the best in all situations, whether on the water or on the beach.
